to be blunt, read a tutorial (more in the stickies thread). like when you started with PHP, it is best to get used to the basics of the new language first.

Don't use document.all - use document.getElementById() to refer to elements. Check whether parent is really what you're after - do you want to change the URL of the main page from a frame?

location is a property of either document or window. to load a new page you need to call it as

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

location.href = new_URI;

Gecko browsers may let you use

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

parent.document.location.href = new_URI;

probably the best would be to pass the value to the other window and do location.href there. but as acoder mentioned, it depends on your project.

Am not changing the main window
the frame set contains 3 frames the top for designs, the left frame is for users to search for students,schools,teachers etc and depending on what they re searching for the right window displays a document i have written to get the result of their search

that layout could also be achieved by not using frames, which probably would lift some of the trouble.
